Clinical Application
Designed for gynecologic procedures, this straight Schroeder vulsellum provides secure purchase on the cervix and vaginal tissue to facilitate traction, exposure and manipulation. Common uses include obtaining traction for dilation and curettage (D&C), facilitating intrauterine device removal, stabilizing the cervix during hysteroscopy or colposcopy, and assisting in minor vaginal procedures. The 2x2 tooth configuration offers firm engagement of mucosal tissue—useful when stable control is required—but should be applied with awareness of tissue friability to minimize unnecessary trauma.
Design & Configuration
The straight shaft and 23 cm overall length give adequate reach into the vaginal canal while maintaining tactile feedback and control at the handles. The 2x2 tooth jaw pattern concentrates bite points to maximize purchase on the cervix with minimal slippage. The simple, straight geometry supports direct line traction and controlled manipulation, which helps improve visualization and access for downstream instrumentation.
